Why Is the Going the Extra Mile Award So Important to Miller Vein?

At Miller Vein, exceptional patient care isn’t just a goal it’s a standard that our team lives up to every single day.

Once a year, at our holiday party, we recognize the one team member who has gone above and beyond that standard. This year, we are thrilled to honor Laura Hill as the recipient of our Going the Extra Mile Award.

What Is the Going the Extra Mile Award?

The Going the Extra Mile Award is meaningful at Miller Vein because it comes directly from our team. Each year, team members submit nominations for a colleague who has demonstrated extraordinary dedication, compassion, and service to both patients, Miller Vein, and the community. The winner is announced at our annual holiday party, where the winner can be properly recognized.

Meet Laura Hill

If you’ve had the pleasure of crossing paths with Laura, you already know why she was nominated. Laura brings a combination of warmth, professionalism, and genuine care to everyone and everything she does. Her impact is not felt just by patients, but by her teammates.

Laura has an ability for making patients feel seen, heard, and at ease. Her interactions with patients are remembered with kindness and patience.

But Laura’s commitment to her patients doesn’t stop when she leaves the clinic.

She has personally delivered a patient’s medication in snowy conditions simply because the patient had no transportation. She drove a patient to the grocery store and the post office when they had no other way to get there. These aren’t required in the job description but something Laura did nonetheless.

Beyond her compassion, Laura keeps things running smoothly behind the scenes. Her organizational skills and attention to detail make the entire team better. She is a trusted, reliable presence and an active contributor at Miller Vein.

A Note from Dr. Miller

When speaking about what this award represents, this is what Dr. Miller had to say:

“The Going the Extra Mile Award. It’s not about perfection. It’s about character. It’s about doing the right thing when it’s inconvenient, unseen, not required. So please join me in celebrating someone who reminds us all of what going the extra mile really looks like.”

Congratulations, Laura

The Going the Extra Mile Award exists because we believe that extraordinary people deserve to be recognized. Laura Hill exemplifies everything this award stands for.

Laura, thank you. You make Miller Vein a better place, and you make our patients’ lives better.

Congratulations on this well-deserved honor. We are so grateful to have you on our team.
